High sensitivity optical femtosecond spectroscopy in the near IR (800nm): Pump-probe time-resolved spectroscopy with 10-7 sensitivity; 15 fs time-resolution (home made system) The experiments are run at room temperature.

optical femtosecond spectroscopy: Pump-probe spectroscopy in UV-near IR range; 80MHz-150 kHz repetition rate; 50 fs time-resolution (home made system): Two pump-probe set-up will be running. The first one will be dedicated to the UV and IR spectral range. The second will be dedicated to the Near IR pump and far IR probe experiments. A nitrogen cryostat iw available. Shortly (mid 2007) a He cryostat with a supraconducting magnet will be installed around the laser beam lines.Coherent 2,5 mJ Amplifier + Light-Conversion OPA + Home made THz Sourcemodel Legend USP-HP, TOPAS+DFG
